Hello, and welcome to 6 Minute English. I'm Neil.
Rob
And I'm Rob.
Neil In this programme we're talking about finance and in particular planning for our future lifestyles. Rob
I can barely afford my current lifestyle!
Neil Being a millionaire may be an impossible dream for most of us, but when was the word first used in English? Was it: a) 1600s b) 1700s, or c) 1800s
What do you think, Rob?
Rob Neil financial features. Recently they were talking about lifestyle financial planning, which is planning your finances to meet the kind of lifestyle you want to have. Julie Lord leads a financial planning organisation and she talked about the process of lifestyle financial planning. How many numbers does she say you need to start with?
Julie Lord
Well, we would start by saying that we need to put together a lifetime cashflow forecast or a model. You just need four numbers: your income, your expenditure, assets, liabilities and then we project forward to show you what sort of lifestyle you will have if you do nothing at all and if indeed you do some of the things that - perhaps an ISA or a pension or any other kind of financial product - might help you with.

Neil͒
So how many numbers do you need?
Rob
She says that you start with just four numbers.
Neil
6JCVçUTOIJV6JGHOTUVQHVJGUGPPOMGTUOU[QPT income, this is the money that you have
coming in, your salary, for example. Rob Then there is the number for your expenditure. This is the money you have going out for rent, food, entertainment, transport and so on. Neil The next number was for assets. This is the cash value of things that you own. For example property, cars, jewellery as well as savings and investments, that kind of thing. Rob And finally there is liabilities. This is the money that you owe, for example on credit cards or loans. Neil So if you know these details, she says they can come up with a lifetime cashflow forecast, which is a calculation of how much money you can expect to have in the future and if that is enough to meet your expectations. Do you have those details? Do you know your numbers, Rob? Rob I have a very detailed spreadsheet where I do list my income and expenditure. So I do know from month to month how much money I need and how much I can spend. Neil That sounds very organised! What does it tell you about your future? Rob

How about you, Neil?
Neil Oh, I live in blissful ignorance. I have no idea how big my debts are. I try not to worry about work out in the end. So it would be difficult for me to come up those four numbers.

Neil Is lifestyle financial planning only for older people with a good pension? Not according to
Julie Lord.

younger clients who come to us and say 'we just want to get financially organised, we've heard about all this stuff, these financial products, no idea really what they are or, more OORQTVCPVN[ĄYJCVVJG[çTGIQOPIVQŃQHQTPUĄUQNCP[QP give us a hand to help us look forward to see what will happen'. Neil Rob Yes, she uses the phrase, give us a hand, which means to help someone. If you give someone a hand, you help them. Neil Exactly, in the way that I give you a hand with 6 Minute English. Rob Well, I think I give you a hand rather than the other way around, Neil. Neil

question. When was the word millionaire first used in English? Was it: a) 1600s b) 1700s, or c) 1800s
What did you think, Rob?
Rob
Well, I guessed and said it was the 1600s.

bbclearningenglish.com Page 4 of 4 was first used in English, though it had appeared in French in the 1700s. Now on with the vocabulary. Rob Yes, we had a lot of financial terms in this programme. We had cashflow forecast. This is a calculation of how much money you can expect to have at a particular time in the future. Neil And the cashflow forecast is based on knowing your income, which is the money you have coming in and your expenditure, the money you have going out. Rob You also need to know your assets, which is the value of things you own as well as savings and investments. This is balanced against your liabilities, which is the term for the money that you owe, for example on credit cards. Neil And finally we had the expression to give someone a hand meaning to help someone. Until then, you can find us in all the usual places on social media, online and on our app. Just search for bbclearninglish. Bye, and thanks Rob for giving me a hand.
Rob͒
No, thank you for giving me a hand. Bye!
